Let’s be honest, it’s tough right now.
Lockdown 3.0 is no fun for anyone and, with it being winter too, it seems even harder this time around.
Sending positive vibes
Here at Johanna Elizabeth, I realise that you may need a pick me up. So, today I’m sharing some wise words that I hope will help.
In tough times, I find that inspirational quotes can be incredibly powerful. They help me to reflect on the positives of a situation and encourage me to think differently. They also serve as a reminder to embrace my power and to find the strength to show up as my best self.
These are some of my favourite inspirational quotes that lift my mood and remind me of good times and better ones ahead.
I hope that they lift your spirits too and give you a boost!
Inspirational quotes to give you a boost
1. “Every day is a fresh start”
There is nothing more certain than the passing of time, and I love this reminder that every day is a new beginning.
No matter how difficult yesterday might have been, each new day presents an opportunity to start afresh or to approach a situation with fresher eyes and a different mindset.
Each day brings new possibilities, and I think that this quote is a great reminder of this.
2. “In case you forgot to remind yourself this morning…”
One of the things I’m passionate about at Johanna Elizabeth is helping women to love themselves and realise that they are enough, exactly as they already are.
This quote is one of my favourites because its sentiment is exactly that.
It reminds me that although we each may see imperfections in ourselves, that there is actually nothing that needs to be improved. Perfection isn’t a size 8. WE are perfect as we are. Remember that!
3. “Once in a while, blow your own mind!”
I’m also a big believer in the fact that your own self-worth should not be judged by anyone other than you, and this quote sums it up perfectly!
It’s a brilliant reminder that we should all be doing things for ourselves, not just to please other people.
I think that striving to smash your own goals is definitely more important than striving to do what others might want you to do or expect you to do.
If you’re happy with yourself, who cares what anyone else thinks, right?
4. “Do it now. Sometimes later becomes never”
As a busy woman, you’ll know how quickly time passes. The years roll on and yet we still barely feel older than the 20-something woman that we remember being not that long ago.
The global pandemic has been a harsh reminder of how precious life is and how important it is to live your life to the full.
As this quote says perfectly, if we keep putting things off that we want to do, there’s a real risk that that those dreams may never be realised. So, if you have a wish list, start getting those things ticked off!
Brighter times are ahead
While I can’t make lockdown end any quicker, I hope that these quotes have helped you today in some small way.
